dtscan

relative temperature scan

SYNOPSIS

dtscan start end intervals time [sleep_time]

DESCRIPTION

The dtscan macro scans the temperature control set point about the current set point. The arguments start and end specify the relative beginning and ending values of the set point. The number of data points collected will be intervals+1. Count time is given by time, which if positive, specifies seconds and if negative, specifies monitor counts.

The optional sleep_time argument specifies a time in seconds to delay after each temperature change.

As with all of spec's temperature-control macros, you need to define a measuretemp and a _settemp macro that work correctly with your instruments. See the Temperature Control Macros section in the spec Standard Macro Guide for details.

EXAMPLE

dtscan 0 1 10 10
